Israeli actress Chelli Goldberg fled a TV studio in terror after she realised that her discussion with an interviewer about her shame in being Israeli had gone out live.
Goldberg told Israeli Channel 13’s morning show that Palestinians have a right to resist Israel’s occupation, that the 7 October raid and Israel’s crimes were a consequence of “the sin of the occupation” – and that the arrogance and violence of Israelis now made her ashamed to be from Israel.
“I’m leaving”
Her interviewers clearly struggled to process her statement, spouting race-based supremacism – and when she realised her words had been broadcast, she immediately said she was leaving:
Perhaps she fled the country as well as the studio. If so, she was probably wise, given the fascist riots and death threats aimed at the makers of the NAZA documentary in which Israeli soldiers bragged about their murders and other crimes in Gaza. Her later ‘apology‘ for not realising she was on air is unlikely to pacify Israel’s ethno-supremacist masses.
Self-awareness and honesty are rare and hated in the apartheid colony.
